Adventure Pass Changes in 2025

Due to software issues affecting all libraries using the service, the Des Moines Public Library’s Iowa Adventure Pass program will no longer be available in 2025. Any reservation already made for 2025 will be honored, but we encourage anyone with a current reservation to print those passes immediately. Customers can make new reservations for passes that must be used by December 31, 2024. We hope to reintroduce the service at a later time, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Program Description

Event Details

Each week starting February we will spotlight an activity for toddlers & preschool age children to work on a one of our 5 Simple Steps: Read, Write, Sing, Play and Talk.  Drop in anytime to work on it together and browse our many children’s books in English, Spanish among other languages.

This week we are focusing on Talk! Stop by to play a bilingual memory game to practice your talking skills. Asking questions and talking to our children helps them expand their vocabulary. 

 

Cada semana a partir de febrero destacaremos una actividad para que los niñes preescolar trabajen en uno de nuestros 5 pasos sencillos para el éxito.  Venga en cualquier momento para trabajar juntos en él y explore nuestros libros para niñes en inglés, español, entre otros idiomas.

Esta semana nos enfocaremos en Charlar! Ven a jugar un juego de memoria bilingüe para practicar tus habilidades de conversación. Hacer preguntas y charlar con sus hijes les ayudará a aprender nuevas palabras.
